Warren & Brown Deflecting beam Questions

[Dokroma]

1. When testing the tool, I accidentally kept tightening without pushing the pin thing in back in. Did this cause any damage?
2. How do you easily remove the socket adapter thing that comes in the case? I found it to be a real struggle to take off once attached to the torque wrench.
3. If I wanted a torque setting of something like 33.8NM, how do I do that? The scale goes up in 5NM increments.
4. Is this scratch on the wedge going to effect accuracy?

Thanks.

Hi Dokroma,

Love these torque wrenches. A great Aussie design.
To answer your questions.
1. You most likely did not damage it, if the pin still works it will be fine.
2. Usually better on the tighter side, prevents it falling out while using, will get loser over time
3. Guestimation.
4. That small scratch will not give problems.

Cheers Sir Bat.
